This operation provides a mechanism for tying an enterprise identity store or directory to role-based AWS access without user-specific credentials or configuration. For a comparison of <code>AssumeRoleWithSAML</code> with the other APIs that produce temporary credentials, see <a href="http://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_temp_request.html">Requesting Temporary Security Credentials</a> and <a href="http://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_temp_request.html#stsapi_comparison">Comparing the AWS STS APIs</a> in the <i>IAM User Guide</i>. <para> The temporary security credentials returned by this operation consist of an access key ID, a secret access key, and a security token.

The duration can be from 900 seconds (15 minutes) to a maximum of 3600 seconds (1 hour). The default is 1 hour. </para><para> The temporary security credentials created by <code>AssumeRoleWithSAML</code> can be used to make API calls to any AWS service with the following exception: you cannot call the STS service's <code>GetFederationToken</code> or <code>GetSessionToken</code> APIs. </para><para> Optionally, you can pass an IAM access policy to this operation. If you choose not to pass a policy, the temporary security credentials that are returned by the operation have the permissions that are defined in the access policy of the role that is being assumed. If you pass a policy to this operation, the temporary security credentials that are returned by the operation have the permissions that are allowed by the intersection of both the access policy of the role that is being assumed, <i><b>and</b></i> the policy that you pass. This means that both policies must grant the permission for the action to be allowed. This gives you a way to further restrict the permissions for the resulting temporary security credentials. You cannot use the passed policy to grant permissions that are in excess of those allowed by the access policy of the role that is being assumed.

The entry includes the value in the <code>NameID</code> element of the SAML assertion.

You can pass up to 50 session tags. The plaintext session tag keys can’t exceed 128 characters, and the values can’t exceed 256 characters. For these and additional limits, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/reference_iam-limits.html#reference_iam-limits-entity-length">IAM and STS Character Limits</a> in the <i>IAM User Guide</i>.</para><note><para>An Amazon Web Services conversion compresses the passed inline session policy, managed policy ARNs, and session tags into a packed binary format that has a separate limit. Your request can fail for this limit even if your plaintext meets the other requirements. The <c>PackedPolicySize</c> response element indicates by percentage how close the policies and tags for your request are to the upper size limit.</para></note><para>You can pass a session tag with the same key as a tag that is already attached to the role. When you do, session tags override a role tag with the same key. </para><para>Tag key–value pairs are not case sensitive, but case is preserved. This means that you cannot have separate <c>Department</c> and <c>department</c> tag keys. Assume that the role has the <c>Department</c>=<c>Marketing</c> tag and you pass the <c>department</c>=<c>engineering</c> session tag. <c>Department</c> and <c>department</c> are not saved as separate tags, and the session tag passed in the request takes precedence over the role tag.</para><para>Additionally, if you used temporary credentials to perform this operation, the new session inherits any transitive session tags from the calling session. If you pass a session tag with the same key as an inherited tag, the operation fails. To view the inherited tags for a session, see the CloudTrail logs.
